Core Tip	Patients with concurrent metabolic associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection (MASLD-HBV) are occasionally encountered in clinical practice. They have different clinical profiles compared to MASLD or “HBV alone” patients. The patients with dual etiology have worse liver fibrosis severity than MASLD patients, but better liver fibrosis stage than “HBV alone” patients, suggesting a complex interaction between MASLD and chronic HBV infection.
